Just a reminder that just because it is Halloween, you do not have permission to:
~Take pieces of people's costume without permission. This applies especially to pieces that are attached or in pockets. You must ask. You cannot just reach into someone's pocket at take something. This also applies to wands, tiaras, wigs, coats, accessorites (AKA everything).
~Play with people's costumes without permission: Do not grab their wings, play with their hair or head pieces, play with trains or long bottom pieces of the costume.
~Don't take people's picture without permission.
~Don't catcall people.
~Don't touch people because they are in costume: This applies to pinching cheeks, ass, or any other body parts, rubbing their back, playing with their hair, feeling their costume, etc.
Just ask permission. Just because it is Halloween, people do not give up their autonomy. They still have the right to govern their bodies how they chose. Remember that you don't know someone's situation and you don't know how uncomfortable they may be.
This applies to all age groups too...whether you have trick-or-treaters coming to your door, you are trick-or-treating, or are at some sort of costume party.
